branching hammer done splitting


Well my branching hammer has finally finished splitting.(For now) The colony now has 10 different heads. I wish it would fully extend like it used to. Color is still good so hopefully it is okay.

Hard to tell in pic the different heads and two are under. If it ever opens back up it will be huge. After lights are on a while it opens enough to hide skeleton but thats it.

It has baby buds popping like popcorn too. Do they stay on the skeleton? If they do there wont be any room.

Very nice. I have a torch coral that branched like that. Started off with 1 head now it has 5. Once the head separate a little more they will start opening up again.

Is that why its not wanting to open fully? The heads are separate but the skeleton is still connected?
